Due to the insolubility of these compound in most of the common solvents employed, we failed to crystallize the materials as single crystals, rather than polycrystalline powders. A possible future solution to our inability to grow single-crystals is the use of very interesting and unusual glassware for reaction/crystallization apparatus recently developed by us(see attached).
Dear Ghodrat Mahmoudi
you can try vapor or liquid diffusion method or the method used in the following paper to get MOF single crystals.

For approaches using counter flow diffusion and slow controlled diffusion respectively you can use the techniques applied in the following papers:
